Apple iTunes or What Else


My Apple iTunes has 2500 CDs or records on a separate hard drive on a Mac computer. All the music is in AIFF files, and the sound is excellent.  The music is streamed wirelessly using Apple Airport Express. My amp is a current Rotel Integrated with DAC and capabilities for optical or coaxial. I use both depending on my mood. The speakers are Monitor Audio Gold 100 which I love. My question is: " What other software would one recommend if I wanted to move away from Apple iTunes. Not dissatisfied but explore a change. Software must operate on Mac OS system.

That is really good equipment you have and I think it’s similar to what I have. I too was using Itunes and have quite a library of AIFF files on a Western Digital Hard Drive that uses WD MyCloud. Because I have a limited budget, I opted to try the Bluesound Node 2 and BluOS software. I can access all my AIFF files and stream via a wide variety of streaming services like Spotify and Tidal. There is much written about Bluesound...have a look. But for me it fits perfectly and sounds great. If you ever try Roon again, Bluesound can marry up with Roon as well. For those who want to try a better DAC with Bluesound, many out there can be used and some can also play MQA tracks.
